PROSINE 2.0 INVERTER•CHARGER USERS MANUAL

The Heart of a Sophisticated, Independent Power System . . .
Your PROsine 2.0 Inverter•Charger has been designed to be the heart of a
sophisticated, independent power system. While the inverter•charger is an
extremely “friendly” product to operate, Xantrex wants to ensure that you get
the best performance from your system. So please take a few minutes to read
the next few pages: they’ll give you an excellent understanding of the 2.0’s
features and capabilities.
In basic terms, the PROsine 2.0 Inverter•Charger is designed to:
Invert
Charge
Manage your power system
Inverting
The PROsine 2.0’s inverting function:
Produces 120Vac from your 12V batteries
Delivers 2kW of power on a continuous basis and 4.5kW of surge power
to start heavy loads like air conditioners, fridges, and pumps
Much of the time the inverter may not be powering loads. During these times,
you don’t want power to be drawn needlessly from the batteries. To reduce
idle current to an absolute minimum, Xantrex has included three features:
Low standby battery demand
Load sense (search) mode
Remote Shutdown
Low Standby Battery Demand
When the 2.0 Inverter•Charger is inverting
(producing 120Vac output without a load), it draws less than 2A of current
from the batteries.
Load Sense (Search) Mode
To reduce battery draw even further, you can
turn on
Load Sense mode
. In Load Sense mode, the inverter•charger
periodically sends out a search pulse to see whether a load is present. If it finds
a load, it will turn on. You can adjust the interval between search pulses, and
you can also adjust the load power at which the inverter•charger will turn on.
Note that in Load Sense mode, there’s a short time delay (up to the interval
you’ve set) between the time you turn on a load and the time the
inverter•charger delivers power. Of course, you can disable Load Sense mode
at any time if you find the delay inconvenient.
